Focus on your target

"कर्मण्येवाधि कारस्ते माँ फलेषु कदाचन"

Focus on your target

When an archer shoots without desire

He has all his skill

Aiming only his goal

The arrow is centered on the tip

He does not care about the result.

His skill remains intact.

When he makes a bird his target.

He is already nervous

His attention is disturbed

If he sees a fish's eye

His attention gets distracted

He sees two targets he is out of focus

His skill did not change but

He cares more to win than shoot

His attention gets distracted

Confused his goal.

जब एक तीरंदाज हार जीत 

की इच्छा बिना साधता अपना 

निशाना उसका लक्ष्य सिर्फ 

बाण के सिरे पर होता केन्द्रित

परिणाम की नहीं उसे परवाह।

उसका हुनर पूर्ण रूप से रहता अक्षुण्ण।

जब वह पक्षी को बनाता अपना निशाना।  

हार जीत की उलझन में पथांतर 

हो जाता उसका कौशल।

यदि वह एक मछली की आंख 

को निशाना बनाता अपना गन्तव्य

उसका ध्यान हो जाता विचलित

भ्रमित हो गया उसका लक्ष्य 

उसका कौशल नहीं बदला परन्तु

जीत हार की तरफ हो गया उसका आकर्षण।
